Apologies, Visitors, Trips, and Newspapers, Oh My!

First is apologies. I'm sorry I haven't posted since forever. So many things have been happening!

Next is visitors, namely Michelle. She was our first ever visitor, and it was great hearing a new voice that doesn't have an accent. Anyone else want to come? I'd love it for one of my friends to come.

Now trips. For break we went to Ireland! I saw cities, countryside, and tons of castles. I even stayed in a B & B attached to a castle. I also kissed the Blarney Stone! It's supposed to give you the gift of gab. I wonder if it worked?

Finally newspapers. This will take a while.  Our school's patron, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, came! She was there because our school did this huge thing for the National Osteoporosis Society. I got to meet her. Twice. She even remembered me from the first time when I met her for the second time. All these paparazzi were there and of picture of me in a newspaper!

Miss you all,
Lena ; )

Museums

I've been going to many museums these days. Last week I went to the natural history museum. Yesterday I was at the awesome transport museum. See the pattern? Today I stayed home and watched the snow fall. Yes, snow in London. I know it's crazy, but apparently global warming is affecting the gulf stream (which is the only thing keeping England from freezing), and so if this continues and the gulf stream gets colder or whatever, we will get snow. I'll make it simpler.
Global warming + Gulf Stream + England's Rain = State College. Get it now? Good, I'm tired of typing. Oh, yeah, I forgot about school! There's this super cute little 4-year-old named Janice and I always play with her. She's Japanese. I love little cute toddlers. They make me happy. What about you? I'm also drawing portraits as a fundraiser for a thing my school is doing. Well, I have to go now, I think Rosie is out of the bath; I'm on her computer. Miss you all!!!! xoxo!!!!!!
